Quality and number of grafts that can be harvested from the donor area remains the main concern of hair transplant surgeons, as it plays a vital role in determining the result of surgery.
Donor growth supply remains the main concern of every hair transplant surgeon, because the ultimate outcome of the surgery depends a lot on the number as well as the quality of grafts harvested for implantation. Even if hair density in the donor area is very good and the grafts are in their best health, there is a limit beyond which the surgeon cannot extract hair follicles. Extracting grafts beyond that limit can affect the appearance of donor area.
A typical hair transplant candidate has thousands of grafts that can be extracted safely without compromising on the appearance of the donor area. Donor hair supply also depends on the density and baldness pattern of an individual. It is very much possible to remove every single graft from the donor area with repeated FUE sessions, but the end result will be a fuller front and a bald back of the head. And if not completely bald, you will end up with a moth-eaten appearance.
Graft Extraction Technique Also Plays A Role!
The number of grafts that can be extracted in a single session also depends on the hair transplant technique used. Every technique allows the surgeon to extract a different number of grafts.
Also known as Strip Method Transplant, FUT allows extraction of maximum grafts. All that the surgeon has to do is cut a hair bearing linear strip of desired size from the donor area and dissect it under powerful microscope to separate follicular units for transplantation. In a person with average donor density, a 15cm long and 1cm wide strip contains approximately 1500 grafts. But this can vary widely from one person to another based on hair density, quality of grafts and scalp laxity.
FUE technique, on the other hand, involves manual extraction of grafts and thus allows limited graft harvesting. In an average FUE session, a surgeon can extract 1,500 grafts. Maximum number of grafts that can be easily and safely harvested through manual FUE is 2,000 grafts. However, if more grafts are required to achieve best results, the surgeon will split the surgery in two or more sessions. But just like FUT, graft extraction using FUE technique also varies significantly from person to person.
